We rode the Hero Xtreme 125R for the past few weeks & here’s what we think about its real-world performance

The sharp and aggressive design makes it feel like a higher capacity bike – Looks amazing

The long single-piece seat is spacious & offers enough room for the rider to move around

The 125cc engine is quite engaging & offers good bottom-end grunt – Makes city ride easy

The motor is able to handle highway speeds of 80kmph without feeling stressed

Is able to cut through city traffic with ease thanks to to the agile & nimble handling characteristics

Leans into corners quite well & the suspension setup keeps the bike planted while leaned over

The 276mm disc brake at the front offers really good stopping power & feel

The console is a bit too basic & doesn’t offer good visibility under harsh sunlight
